This account has a new direction.

I originally joined Nostr as myself, learning, exploring, and connecting with people here. I’m still that same person, but this profile is now becoming the Nostr home for Camera Dates.

Camera Dates is about becoming a better photographer by actually getting out with your camera, practicing with purpose, paying attention, and learning to see differently.

No gear obsession. No pretending every photograph needs to be a masterpiece. Just practical photography education, real assignments, ideas to try, and encouragement to keep shooting.

I’m Jonathan, the photographer and writer behind CameraDates.com, and I’ll be sharing new articles, Camera Date exercises, photographs, occasional behind-the-scenes thoughts, and whatever else seems worth talking about along the way.

If you enjoy photography and want a reason to use your camera more often, you’re in the right place.

How Much Better Would Our Lives Be Without Computers?

This article explores whether computers are running our lives or ruining them. It reflects on a time before digital dependence, when people relied on memory, critical thinking, and face-to-face interactions. While computers have made life more convenient, they’ve also diminished our independence, problem-solving skills, and real-world connections. Would life be harder without them? Yes, but it would also be richer, smarter, and more human.

Brain Peace: Keeping calm in the busy world around you is essential.

In a world that never slows down, stress and fear have become silent killers, eroding both our mental and physical health. This article explores the dangers of constant busyness, drawing an analogy to an overworked truck that eventually breaks down. Chronic stress has been linked to heart disease and other serious illnesses, yet society continues to fuel fear for profit. The key to maintaining peace lies in simple, intentional choices: eating well, exercising, letting go of fear, resting, and trusting in God's plan. By focusing on today’s troubles rather than tomorrow’s worries, we can reclaim our health and inner peace.
